Heartbeat follows the lives of villagers in the Yorkshire Moors as they are influenced by social changes in the 1960’s.
This episode:
Liz’s past catches up with her, and Vernon’s dreams of wealth go up in smoke. Meanwhile, Merton receives crime-fighting assistance from two unlikely recruits – Batman and Robin.
Steven plays a less-than-savory James Blexley in Caped Crusaders.
Here are the reviews from Brighton and Richmond for Relative Values.

“an excellent supporting cast featuring Steven Pacey as Lady Marshwood’s nephew”
“Steven Pacey lolls delectably as the gay nephew.”

Amateur Blog and Social Media Reviews
“Add Katherine Kingsley as Miranda, Ben Mansfield as Hollywood star and her old flame, Don Lucas and Steven Pacey as Peter, the Countess’s gay cousin and confidante. All perform clichéd roles superbly.”
Peter Viney, BLOG
Reviews from press night, Wednesday 19 June, for Relative Values are in. Here’s a summary of Steven Pacey’s specific mentions:
“and there’s a delightful scene-stealing turn from Steven Pacey as Peter, the Countess’s nephew.”
“and Steven Pacey as Felicity’s nephew, Peter, providing the other half of a strong comic quartet”
“Felicty, Countess of Marshwood, is played by the brilliant Patricia Hodge who delivers the sharp wit of Noel Coward with exquisite precision. Along with Steven Pacey as her on-stage nephew, The Honourable Peter Ingleton, the pair provide a class-act. ”

Steven plays prominent council official, Clark Donovan, in the last episode of the current series.
Episode Synopsis:
Stabbed in a dark alley of Glasgow city centre, a busker desperately tries to drag himself to help but dies amongst a swarm of shocked pedestrians. With footprints and the victim’s dog’s bloody paws contaminating the site, the crime scene is a nightmare for forensic pathologist Duncan Clark, and for D.C.I Burke and his team.
With no clear suspect the team track down CCTV footage which reveals two prominent local figures present in the area of the stabbing – gangster Benny ‘Baby Doc’ Docherty and Clark Donovan, Head of Appropriations at the City Council.
Vital evidence for the investigation turns up in the hands of Art students Annie and Mickey who were photographing the alley at the time of the murder for a college project. D.S. Mita Rahim talks to the students hoping the pictures will bring to light what really happened on the evening of the stabbing. Frustratingly, the essential shots from the time of the murder have been stolen from their dark room, but D.C.I. Burke is convinced this is more than just a coincidence…
Synopsis reproduced from ITV.
Steven’s episode of Pie in the Sky (Series 4, Episode 5, Breaking Bread, originally aired in 1996) will be repeated on ITV during next week.
Episode Synopsis:
To save money Fisher turns over the police catering to a mass production company The Happy Ploughman, clients of Margaret. Henry is appalled but investigates after several acts of sabotage against the firm. Former police canteen manager Tom Selly and his bread supplier Flora McKee are suspects and Henry arrests Flora. However such is the resentment in the force that no-one uses the new automated canteen and Fisher hints that he would like to find indiscrepancies in The Happy Ploughman’s books that would allow him to revoke the franchise. Henry duly obliges, as well as catching the real saboteur.
Steven Pacey plays Geoff Reece, the slippery owner of The Happy Ploughman.
